Part 1
Chapter 1
The full moon shined through the dark purple clouds. Its rays reached the forest to make the dewdrops glitter. All the forest is quiet and still.. Until there is a small light floating above a lily, like a tiny star that came from the heavens. It then dreamily fluttered through a clump of forget-me-nots and flew slowly to a small door at the base of a tree. It carefully opened it and tiptoed inside, I followed it with no cautiousness, mesmerized by its beauty reminding me of the tale the old folks tell of the fairies. I followed it until I met with the strange orb, barely hovering over the ground. It shimmered and glowed, calling me towards it. ” Touch me,” it called to me. I did as I was told. I saw a split flash, then passed out. Now you may think this is going to be a nice fantasy story full of magical nice creatures but the truth is far from that. This story is about things you would only think to see in nightmares, horror films, or imagine when reading a book. It may not seem like horror, but it will have a strange turn of events that will leave you shocked…
Chapter 2
Now, you may be wondering how I got into this situation. Well, might as well start with a short background story. It started the day before, i had just got up. I sat up, yawned, and turned and looked at my calendar that hung lopsided on my wall. After my eyes adjusted, I realized what day it was. ” HOLY SH!T, IT'S TODAY,” I screeched. I jumped out of bed and scrambled to put on my clothes. I picked out a black and red plaid skirt, my faded hex girls shirt, a Green Day zip up jacket, and with some time left over, I had to pick out a few accessories. Dont judge, alright? I like skirts… anyways- I grabbed my bag, ran downstairs and got on my skateboard. The cold winter weather hit my face. It felt nice, even though the clouds covered the sun. I went the fastest I ever have in my entire life. I rushed to the Tattoo and Piercing Gods, my work. It was finally the day that the celebrity singer, Touya Takahashi , booked an appointment at our place, and booked ME to do it for him. When my boss had told me 2 weeks before, he said that I would get paid tremendously if I did it right. It was the first and only time he actually cared. Even if he didn't really, he actually tried to care. Touya scheduled the appointment for 8:15 and it was already 8:00. I hurried to the back rooms to put on my work uniform. Once I did, I waited for my idol to arrive. 15 minutes later, his car, a Pagani Huayra, pulled into the parking lot. I could barely contain my excitement. ” You ready, Aki?” My best friend Yui asked, watching him get out of the car. ” Not really,” I said as a shiver ran down my spine. Yui turned and looked at me. ” You'll be fine, dude, don't worry!” He came in suddenly, his bodyguard following close behind. ” Hello, you must be Aki Nakamura?” Touya asked politely. ” Ah, yes, that's me! How may I help you today, sir?” I could barely keep my voice from quavering. ” I would like to get a tattoo on my arm and possibly a couple piercings,” He said. He didn't take his eyes off me. I grew flustered. It's not everyday your idol comes into your work and asks for you directly. ” I-i see, well, come with me and I´ll give you a seat.” As he followed me to the tattoo station I tried my hardest to calm down. I picked out a seat at my station for him. ” Please give me a moment to get the required things,” I said, my voice low. ” Of course!” Touya says. I walked back to where we had just come from. I rushed towards Yui. ” I cannot do this!!” I told her, making sure that Touya and his bodyguard couldn't hear me. Yui looked at me and scowled. ” He asked for you specifically,” she told me, still scowling. ” Plus, it's fvck!ng TOUYA TAKAHA-” I cover her mouth, trying my best to keep her from yelling. ” Shhh! Don't let them hear you, d!psh!t!” I moved my hand away from her mouth, afraid she might lick me. It would not be the first time. Yui did not look pleased. ” Come on, Aki! This is a once in a lifetime chance! You have to take it. Don't tell me you don't want what the boss offered?” She was trying to make me give in. It worked.” 神クソくそー (god fvck!ng d@mmit),” I huffed. Yui´s eyes lit up with excitement. ” I knew i could talk you into it.” I sighed and went to the back to get my tattoo tool kit. I opened the box. These are really worn out. I really need the money, don't I? They are definitely gonna bust soon, I thought to myself. I walked to where I had seated Touya. I opened the box once again and paused. ” What would you like a tattoo of?” I asked. Touya pulled out his phone and searched for the picture. Once found, he reached over and gave me the phone. ” Will you be able to do that?” he asked. It was a realistic tattoo, it had an eye inside a triangle, maybe an illuminati, a clock below it, and a rose below that. They were all surrounded by plant growth. ” Yeah, I can do it. This isn't the worst thing ive been asked to do.” I say, confident in myself. Touya laughed, ” I can believe that.” I grabbed my tools and began the tattoo. It took about 45 minutes to finish the outline he wanted. I was ready to do the hard part, the shading. Okay, pause. At this point, you're probably wondering why the backstory is stopped. Well, I'm regretting agreeing with Yui to do it. I don't want to relive this moment… but I sorta have to, right? Okay fine. Continuing where I left off, I was in the middle of a conversation with Touya. ” You were bullied!?” I exclaimed. Touya laughed. ” I was! I was the one kid with good grades, and so I was bullied.” He said, voice calm. ” Those jealous a$$holes,” I growled. I looked at his arm and continued. The little tool I was using made a noise. Kaacchhhki, it buzzed. Then, it happened. The handle started vibrating, then.. PSSSHHH!! The ink bag broke, spewing ink all over Touya's arm, and he sat there, petrified. ” WHAT THE HELL!?” Touya yelled. He sounded shocked. ” I'M SO SORRY!! I'LL FIX IT!!” I stood up, and ran to the back room, hoping to find a special ink remover. If I didn't hurry, the ink would dry and stay. I would get fired, bad reviews, no way to pay bills, and probably fall into depression again. Yui rushed into the room. ” What happened??” She asked, clearly concerned. ” I FVCKED UP! HELP ME FIND THE INK REMOVER!!” I said, on the verge of tears. I couldn't lose this job, it's the only one that accepted me. FInding the ink remover is taking too long, I'm surely getting fired! I thought. Yui was searching frantically with me for the ink remover. The next thing I know, my boss came into the room, face practically red. At that moment Yui immediately stopped. She knew I was in deep sh!t, and there was no way she was gonna go down with me. ” AKI!! YOU USELESS PEICE OF SH!T!! YOU JUST LOST ME EVERYTHING!!!” He screamed, eyes glowing red, along with his face. He walked over to me, then hit me. Right in the face, leaving a red mark. Yui looked at him then me and she backed up into the corner. It was like she was hoping that the boss didn't see her. I touched my cheek. It burned. I walked up to him, with all the courage I had. I looked him dead in the eyes and calmly said, ” Well, maybe if you actually cared and replaced the tools, that wouldn't have happened. You know, next time you hire somebody you should actually care about them and not your stupid reputation. None of this would've happened if you did, dumba$$ So fvck you, b!tch.” Yui stood there in the corner, clearly amazed and shocked but the boss… oh how he looked like he was a ticking time bomb ready to explode. I walked out, grabbed my bag, and walked to the front door. I paused. ” I'm sorry, Touya,” I said in a low voice before turning around.
Chapter 3
I walked out the door and grabbed my skateboard. I hopped on and rolled down the street. As the cold wind hit my face once again, the tears came. No no no no no no!! Not now! I started to pick up speed. People stared. Too many people. I couldn't take anymore embarrassment. I made a turn into the Sherbert Cafe’. I got off the skateboard and sat on the outside bench. ” I can't take this right now. I need a break,” I said to myself. I got up and slowly walked into the cafe. It was their break time, I knew, so I had to use my spare key. ” Hey guys!!” I said while trying to be enthusiastic. ” Sakura, your little friend is here!!” Kura, the manager of the cafe, yelled. ” Really?!” I heard Sakura yell from the back room. ” Heyyyy, Sakura!!” I say, trying my best to keep my voice straight. I heard a few loud footsteps, I knew she'd be excited to see me. Sakura busted through the back room door. ” AKI!!!” She exclaimed. ” It's been some time, huh?” I asked. ” Yeah, what was that about?” Sakura asked, walking towards me. ” Well, I had a lot on my shoulders. Sorry it's been awhile,” I said. ” My place?” ” Yeah.” ” Hey, Kura, im taking a day off.” She said to Kura. ” Alright.” Kura said back. We walked out together. All of a sudden she grabbed my shoulders. ” Who?” She asked, with anger in her voice. ” H-huh?” I stammered. I didn't know what she meant. ” The bruise on your cheek. Who did it?” Sakura asked, Voice the same. ” Oh...” I said. I completely forgot about that. I didn't know it was so bad that it would bruise. I spoke quietly. ” Uh… You know, it's not a big deal, we can jus-” Sakura shook me. ” NO! Do NOT change the subject. It is a big deal. Who did it and why?” I sighed. ” My… old boss.” ” I’LL KILL THAT SON OF A- Wait, old boss? You got fired? Or you quit?” Sakura was like a mother. A very protective mother. Anything happens, she tries to help. She is very easily concerned. ” Um… Well, technically I quit, but he was going to fire me anyway. I didn't let him have the satisfaction,” I said, holding in the tears. I lost my job in front of my idol, and best friend. Not to mention the bruise now stained onto my cheek. ” But why would he hit you and try to fire you? You are a very good person, and probably better at work than me, even.” Sakura said. Oh yeah sure. Says the one who got hired on the first try. I thought to myself. ” Let's just- head to your house for now. I'll tell you later.” I told her. Sakura hesitated. ” Hmmm.. Okay, fine. But you are not getting out of this,” She said after a bit. ” That's fine.” We walked to her car, a beaten up Toyota, and got in with the skateboard in the back seat. As we drove to Sakura's house, my favourite song came on the radio. ” Hello and good afternoon drivers!!! We are now playing Beggin by Måneskin. Enjoy!!” the radio announced. I immediately gasped and turned the radio up. ” Haha, I'm guessing you like this song-” Sakura began. ” Shhh it's coming on!” I told her. ” Put your lovin´ hand out, baby~. Cause I'm beggin~” The radio sang, along with me. ” Ohhh this one. So that's what it's called,” Sakura figured. ” Oh, yeah no sh!t sherlock. It's in the name, you dummy,” I say, voice flat. . ” Im beggin, beggin´ you! Put your lovin´ hand out baby~. Im beggin´, beggin´ you~ Put your lovin´ hand out darling~” It continued. Me and Sakura joined in. We sang along with it until it was over, and after that I decided to make small talk. ”Sooo how have you been?” I asked. It was getting too quiet. Sakura seemed to think about it. ” Well, good, but you haven't texted me in a while.” She finally said. I rolled my eyes. ”Sounds like a you problem,” I say with sarcasm.” How so?” Sakura asked, unamused. ”Well, if you weren't so clingy, you wouldn't care.” I sassed at her. She gasped dramatically. ”How dare you!!” Sakura exclaimed. “I'm just saying , the truth is the truth.” I said. “You're lucky I love you (as a friend),” She said back. We continued talking and catching up. Then, Sakura asked an interesting question. “ Hey, Aki. I've been wanting to ask you, why don't you have a girlfriend yet? You're like the best person to be in a relationship. You're scared, or just..” She trailed off. “ Well, why don't you have a boyfriend? I'll only tell you if you tell me first,” I said to her. “You know what, you win this time. The reason why i don't have a boyfriend is because Im a lesbian and im proud to be one,” Sakura said with confindence. “Oh. So you don’t like boys in the slightest?” I asked. “Nope. Girls are hot, man.” She replied. I looked at her sideways. “Well, I personally think you should try dating a guy first .” I say teasingly. “You don't know how many times I heard that, and no, girls are better and cuter.” She hissed at me. “No they are not. Boys are-” I put my hand over my mouth, but it already slipped out. She was already turning to face me. “YOUR GAY!?!? I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT!!!” Sakura shrieked. “EYES ON THE ROAD, SAKURA!” I yelled in fear. “ I got it, don’t worry.” She replied calmly. We turned, then I realized we were already at her house. “Well, we're here.” “Yep, we are,” I said, traumatized. “C’mon, we should go inside,” Sakura said, getting out of the car. I slowly got out, walking towards the front door. As I was walking, I saw a shimmer out of the corner of my eye. “Huh..?” I muttered under my breath. I turned in the direction I saw it, maybe hoping I would see it again. “Aki, you good?” Sakura said, startling me slightly. “U-uh yeah, just gonna chill out here for a bit. Catch my breath, you know?” I replied. She looked at me weirdly, but shrugged it off shortly after. “Sure, I guess.” After she went back inside, I sighed. “Why was I worried? Oh yeah, she would think I'm crazy,” I told myself. Then I remembered why I was even outside in the first place. I looked around, trying to figure out where the shimmering had come from. Then, it happened again. As I walked towards it, I figured out that it was a small, rounded stone. It was a perfect circle, and it seemed impossibly smooth. “How the hell?” I questioned. I reached down to grab it. It seemed to glow more as I did so, which made me want to have it more. As I finally wrapped my hand around it, everything started moving and all that I could hear was buzzing. The next thing I know I'm in a bed, not my own, but Sakura’s guest bed. As I slowly wake up, my head starts pounding. “Sh!t…” I say in pain. I looked at the window, realizing it was dark out. After sitting in silence for a few minutes, I hear footsteps approaching the door. “AKI! I’m so glad you're awake!” Sakura greets. “Shhh! My head is killing me,” I say back. “Oh, sorry. What happened? Are you ok? What made you pass out? Why didn't you tell me something was wrong? What-” She rambled. “Why are you such a mom?” I huffed. “Well, you are like a child, and someone has to take care of you. I just volunteered.” Sakura replied. “Ha-ha, very funny.” She just looked at me. Silence. “So…. you gonna answer my questions?” Sakura asked, seemingly worried. “One, I passed out, obviously, two, sure, three, I’m not so sure, four, this is why.” I say. Sakura looked me up and down. “Okay, SmArT GuY,” she mocked. I rolled my eyes. “Okay, since you're awake, can you tell me what happened?” “Wow. I just woke up from passing out for… I don't even know how long and that's the only thing you have to say to me?” I say, making my voice sound hurt yet sarcastic at the same time. “Fvck off, Aki.” she growled, “Just tell me, godd@mm!t.” “Fine.” I took a deep breath and slowly told her what had happened earlier that day. After, she took a breath then walked out the room to make a ‘phone call’. After she was gone, I figured it was time to let it out. After crying for a few minutes, I heard Sakura screaming, “FVCK YOU! YOU ARE AN @BUS3R! YOU DESERVE WHAT’S COMING YOUR WAY!!” It brought back memories. Of my mother, screaming at my father. But that’s a story for another time, correct? I continued to cry and it slowly began to flow faster, making it hard to stop. I heard something scitter across the floor, making me jump. “What the fvck?” I breathed. I got off the bed hesitantly. I walked towards the noise. It was now behind the dresser. I bent down, hoping to figure out what creature made that noise. As I looked behind the dresser, I was met with a small, furry face of a cat. “How the hell did you get in here?” I said. It only tilted it's head. I sat down next to the dresser. “Hey, you okay?” I asked it, as if it would answer me. It purred in response. “Hm. You seem to understand me, huh?” It purrs again. “That’s cool. God, I’m driving myself crazy. Talking to a fvcking cat.” I slowly picked the small creature up, not wanting to startle it. Sakura was still screaming, but I tunned her out as I held the cat and walked out the room. I walked down the stairs and out the front door, passing Sakura as I did so. She just looked at me. She might’ve said something, but I still didn’t listen. It felt like a trance. Walking to I don’t even know where, in the middle of the night, tear marks on my face along with a bruise, holding a cat, and not listening to anything around me except for my thoughts. Oh, and I was barefoot. Sakura must’ve thought they would be uncomfortable while sleeping. She’d be right. I walked and walked, not paying attention to any of my surroundings. My thoughts seemed to be the only things I could hear.

I looked at her sideways. “Well, I personally think you should try dating a guy first .” I say teasingly. “You don't know how many times I heard that, and no, girls are better and cuter.” She hissed at me. “No they are not. Boys are-” I put my hand over my mouth, but it already slipped out. She was already turning to face me. “YOUR GAY!?!? I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT!!!” Sakura shrieked. “EYES ON THE ROAD, SAKURA!” I yelled in fear. “ I got it, don’t worry.” She replied calmly. We turned, then I realized we were already at her house. “Well, we're here.” “Yep, we are,” I said, traumatized. “C’mon, we should go inside,” Sakura said, getting out of the car. I slowly got out, walking towards the front door. As I was walking, I saw a shimmer out of the corner of my eye. “Huh..?” I muttered under my breath. I turned in the direction I saw it, maybe hoping I would see it again. “Aki, you good?” Sakura said, startling me slightly. “U-uh yeah, just gonna chill out here for a bit. Catch my breath, you know?” I replied. She looked at me weirdly, but shrugged it off shortly after. “Sure, I guess.” After she went back inside, I sighed. “Why was I worried? Oh yeah, she would think I'm crazy,” I told myself. Then I remembered why I was even outside in the first place. I looked around, trying to figure out where the shimmering had come from. Then, it happened again. As I walked towards it, I figured out that it was a small, rounded stone. It was a perfect circle, and it seemed impossibly smooth. “How the hell?” I questioned. I reached down to grab it. It seemed to glow more as I did so, which made me want to have it more. As I finally wrapped my hand around it, everything started moving and all that I could hear was buzzing. The next thing I know I'm in a bed, not my own, but Sakura’s guest bed. As I slowly wake up, my head starts pounding. “Sh!t…” I say in pain. I looked at the window, realizing it was dark out. After sitting in silence for a few minutes, I hear footsteps approaching the door. “AKI! I’m so glad you're awake!” Sakura greets. “Shhh! My head is killing me,” I say back. “Oh, sorry. What happened? Are you ok? What made you pass out? Why didn't you tell me something was wrong? What-” She rambled. “Why are you such a mom?” I huffed. “Well, you are like a child, and someone has to take care of you. I just volunteered.” Sakura replied. “Ha-ha, very funny.” She just looked at me. Silence. “So…. you gonna answer my questions?” Sakura asked, seemingly worried. “One, I passed out, obviously, two, sure, three, I’m not so sure, four, this is why.” I say. Sakura looked me up and down. “Okay, SmArT GuY,” she mocked. I rolled my eyes. “Okay, since you're awake, can you tell me what happened?” “Wow. I just woke up from passing out for… I don't even know how long and that's the only thing you have to say to me?” I say, making my voice sound hurt yet sarcastic at the same time. “Fvck off, Aki.” she growled, “Just tell me, godd@mm!t.” “Fine.” I took a deep breath and slowly told her what had happened earlier that day. After, she took a breath then walked out the room to make a ‘phone call’. After she was gone, I figured it was time to let it out. After crying for a few minutes, I heard Sakura screaming, “FVCK YOU! YOU ARE AN @BUS3R! YOU DESERVE WHAT’S COMING YOUR WAY!!” It brought back memories. Of my mother, screaming at my father. But that’s a story for another time, correct? I continued to cry and it slowly began to flow faster, making it hard to stop. I heard something scitter across the floor, making me jump. “What the fvck?” I breathed. I got off the bed hesitantly. I walked towards the noise. It was now behind the dresser. I bent down, hoping to figure out what creature made that noise. As I looked behind the dresser, I was met with a small, furry face of a cat. “How the hell did you get in here?” I said. It only tilted it's head. I sat down next to the dresser. “Hey, you okay?” I asked it, as if it would answer me. It purred in response. “Hm. You seem to understand me, huh?” It purrs again. “That’s cool. God, I’m driving myself crazy. Talking to a fvcking cat.” I slowly picked the small creature up, not wanting to startle it. Sakura was still screaming, but I tunned her out as I held the cat and walked out the room. I walked down the stairs and out the front door, passing Sakura as I did so. She just looked at me. She might’ve said something, but I still didn’t listen. It felt like a trance. Walking to I don’t even know where, in the middle of the night, tear marks on my face along with a bruise, holding a cat, and not listening to anything around me except for my thoughts. Oh, and I was barefoot. Sakura must’ve thought they would be uncomfortable while sleeping. She’d be right. I walked and walked, not paying attention to any of my surroundings. My thoughts seemed to be the only things I could hear.
